A few years ago, I attended #virtualCCFest for the first time and left inspired! Today, I will be delivering the closing keynote at CC Fest. I'm looking forward to sharing my love of creative coding and encouraging others to archive (and share!) their creative work.

There are a few services out there… for example www.tapelink.io

So beautiful! knob.design

AI Elements looks really good. It has pre-built React components for AI apps like chats, messages, code blocks and reasoning views. Building this UI from scratch is tough, wish I had it months ago 😅 ai-sdk.dev/elements/ove...

Super Bock Arena, Porto! 🫡🎤

Small UI details no one notices... 👀

May was wild. One moment I’m design and coding, the next I’m on stage performing for millions. Still can’t believe it. Grateful for everything. 💙

"Can you make what’s under the asterisk more visible?" Me: Absolutely. This animation didn’t make it into the new xata.io, but we loved it anyway.

📣 We have a brand new Postgres platform with: Instant Copy-on-Write branching Built-in data anonymization Separation of storage and compute 100% vanilla Postgres It’s for staging/dev environments as well as for production workloads. Blog post: xata.io/blog/xata-po... And more details in 🧵

Wrote up yet another blog on dark mode/light mode on GitHub! github.blog/developer-sk...

I’m giving a talk today at the University of Minho, Portugal! The energy here is truly inspiring!

The best tool I’ve found for generating color palettes for Tailwind and similar use cases is gka.github.io/palettes. I’ve been using it for years, as it ensures the palette is colorblind-safe. Most other Tailwind color generators feel too basic for my needs.

My first open-source contribution of the year! A feature many might have been asking for (or so I tell myself 😅). Now you can add your Bluesky profile link to your daily.dev app, just like this: app.daily.dev/elizabetdev 🚀 Here's the PR: github.com/dailydotdev/...

The microwave was invented so people with ADHD could enjoy hot coffee.

I miss those days too. So... I’ve been working on my website inspired by my first computer, the ZX Spectrum. I added some keyboard shortcuts, a few animations, and coded a mini-game. It’s still a work in progress. I might add sounds too. It’s been a fun little project to keep me inspired. 😊

Thanks @nikkitaftw.wtf for letting me know about the BER Runaway. 🙏🏽

That's a wrap on an incredible in-person conference day 🎉 So many great vibes😍 A huge thank you to the speakers, attendees, MCs, program committee, partners, and team. See you later at the party today? 🪩

Bringing the Hip-Hop philosophy to React - awesome presentation and energy from @elizabet.dev - live rapping was very cool! 🎤⚛️✨ #ReactDayBerlin

@elizabet.dev amazing talk, very inspirational, thank you!

I didn’t ask KLM to check in my bag. My ticket included a bag in the cabin, but they said there wasn’t enough space. And now, here I am with my luggage lost. 😭

5 AM flight to Amsterdam (then Berlin), no sleep tonight. But hey, React Day Berlin is calling! 🎤

I’m building my new website inspired by the ZX Spectrum. While researching about it, I came across Museum LOAD ZX Spectrum in Portugal. It’s so close to home, I had to visit today. Such a cool place!

My Spotify Wrapped for Artists. Not bad for a retired rapper. 😅

Working on my upcoming personal website, inspired by the ZX Spectrum. I’m planning to update the “Load Game” button and add some ZX Spectrum-style keys, but I haven’t had the time yet. #BuildInPublic

Sometimes “any” fixes all your problems…

Client-side SQL offers incredible development speed but poses challenges for security and scalability. Is it a game-changer or a risk? David Gomes from Neon Database will share his experience on our third meetup at the Sitio Fintech House. ✨Join us: lu.ma/c78icq9o

WIP for my new website, inspired by a ZX Spectrum.

2025 is almost here. Let’s hope AI still needs some human supervision.

I came across payloadcms.com a few weeks ago and decided to try it out at xata.io. We’ve been using MDX for our blog. It works, but a WYSIWYG editor would be much easier, especially for the marketing team. Let’s see if Payload can make our workflow easier and content management simpler for everyone.

Found this project today: motion-primitives.com. Beautifully designed motion components, easy to copy-paste, customizable, and open source. Built for engineers and designers with @motion.dev by @ibelick.bsky.social. I might use it for my next personal website. 😍

So happy that Framer Motion is now an independent open-source library called Motion! The old docs were tough to use and made me look for alternatives a few times, but now they finally have a search feature. Huge thanks for making this happen, @citizenofnowhe.re! 🙌 motion.dev/blog/framer-...

Mariah Carey voice: It’s tiiiimeee! 🎄😅

Developers, do you want to verify yourself here but don't have a personal domain? You can use your GitHub account! 🦋🐱 I temporarily renamed myself to @nicolo-ribaudo.github.io :)

Is Spotify Wrapped coming out or not? 🙄

📣 It's live! Here's the full write up of how I show Bluesky likes on my blog posts, after I've shared them to Bluesky. Like this post to be featured on this blog post (until there are more than 59 likes, in which case, you'll bumped off)!

Got a sneak peek into that talk today, and it was incredibly inspiring 😍

Next month, I’ll be sharing my journey from hip-hop to code at React Day Berlin. Hope to see you there! ✌🏽

That’s a nice spot! 😍

Tomorrow at #ReactSummit I'll be presenting a #CreativeCode talk on "Sketching with Code". I will show how to leverage React.js to manage the state of p5js sketches to build visually engaging, interactive experiences.

Thinking of buying a new domain… future me already regrets it. 🫠

Made this on #womp3d. It is called “Milky”!

So excited to join an incredible lineup of speakers next month with my talk: From Hip-Hop to Code! Sharing how hip-hop shaped my path to design, coding, and React.js, with a sneak peek at my projects! Can’t wait to share this journey!

This has been the fastest year ever

Wow! This is so cool.

Yesterday at #WebSummit Lisbon, had some nice chats with a few interesting startups. There were plenty of Figma-to-code solutions, but I didn’t come across any startup that truly stood out as innovative.
